Memories from the McKnight's: Worsham Family Fun

We spent the 4th of July weekend in Shreveport with Ryan’s side of the family, celebrating Grandma Worsham’s 90th birthday. Four generations gathered for lots of visiting and LOTS of fun! Maddie and Anna got the chance to play with their cousins from Tennessee (Jay & Joanna’s kids) and New Orleans (Chad & Cole’s kids). Since we spent about 7 hours at the church where we were having Grandma’s party, we were extremely thankful for DS’s, Leapsters, and iPhones!!! I have to say I was proud of all the kids, as there were no naps and no meltdowns this day!

We don’t get to Shreveport as nearly as often as we would like, and as a result our girls don’t have the opportunity to know their Great Grandma Worsham as well as I wished they did. I think Anna had only met her once before this weekend, and that was when she was a baby, so it warmed my heart when I saw how she reacted to her. I honestly thought she might be a bit stand-offish, but it was quite the opposite. As soon as Great Grandma arrived, Anna went right up to her and gave her a hug-and pretty much stayed by her side the rest of the day…keeping her hand softly on Great Grandma’s arm and drawing her pictures (which Great Grandma told her were the prettiest she had ever seen!)

Great Grandma Worsham & Anna Katherine…I love this picture!

After Great Grandma’s birthday party, we played the Worsham Family Minute to Win It game…SO much fun! We all laughed so hard and had a great time! I’m looking forward to the next one already!
